1. A barge 8m wide, 16m long, and 4m high is transporting in sea water (SG=1.03) with a total load of 1500 kN (including its own weight and cargo). It floats vertically until an external force hit the scow resulting to a shifting of 100 kN (from the 1500 KN) at a distance 2.50m to one side causing the barge to go down 45 cm in the immersed wedge. Determine the a. distance in meters from the metacenter to the center of buoyancy b. distance in meters from the waterline to the cg of the loaded barge c. buoyancy moment in kN-m
Reservoir and Streamflow Routing
In hydrology, a reservoir is usually a natural pond that is enlarged or made using a dam to keep the water clean. Reservoirs or dams can be constructed in several ways, including controlling the existing watercourse, disrupting the watercourse to form embayment within it, by digging or building any number of retaining walls.
Water Resource Systems Analysis
Water resources are natural water sources that may be as useful as water sources. 97% of the world's water is saltwater and only 3% is pure water; just over two-thirds of this ice sheet is located in glaciers. The remaining pure frozen water is found primarily as groundwater, with only a small fraction present above the ground or in the air. Natural sources of freshwater include surface water, under river flow, groundwater, and ice water. Artificial water sources can include treated wastewater (recycled water) and saline seawater.
